Making Functional Pots

In person

Alice Chittenden

Pottery Class: Beginner + Intermediate
If you are interested in making ceramic pieces for the home, this class is for you.
Making functional pots is important to all levels of students, whether you throw pots on the wheel or prefer to build by hand. Students will learn ways to modify forms to create pieces uniquely their own.
Classes will include various techniques for pot making as well as considerations pertaining to each form. Surface treatments including engobes, stains, and glazes will also be covered.
Both teacher demonstrations and one-on-one student instruction will occur each week.
Wear clothes that can get dirty.
Pottery tool kits are available for sale in the studio for $27.  Cash or check only.
Firing fees are $3/pound.  Cash or check only.
